    If I cannot find something similar then I will rewatch Log Horizon.
    No loli please or ecchi.
    I am too old for that shit, eleng.ee will probably reply with some spam but I will not see it as he is on my ignore list

    Love Log Horizon! Anyways, I feel like That time I got reincarnated as a slime is really good. Don’t get thrown off by the title.

    +1 for That time i got reicarnated as a slime (shonen)
    Also The Rising of the Shield Hero (more seinen than shonen) is a dark version of being transported into another world.
    Psycho Mob 100 (shonen)
    Hunter Hunter (shonen)
    One Punch Man (FANTASTIC)
    Overlord (dark shonen)
    GATE Thus the JSDF Fought There. Basically Japan's army fighting a Rome-esque enemy in a fantasy world. Quite dark however also has ecchi and a bit of loli (at first the loli is ok and even heartwarming, it turns VERY GRIM).
    Parasyte (seinen, bloody).
    Great Teacher Onizuka (EPIC)

    As for Log Horizon the closest you will get is the orginal version .hack which there are a few.

    .hack has too much philosphy
    Too many questions and no answers or solutions
    Classic Japanese storytelling which pisses me off
    Yeah lol

    I remembered this anime called 'Gungrave' (so I thought I should tell you) while it is not exactly the same but it is definitely worth watching of course assuming you didn't watch it already)

    Already did. Around the same time I watched Hellsing.
    I didn't understand anything though as that was a decade or so ago when I just go into anime so I re watch might not be so bad.
    This is why I asked about subtitles.
    I don't think all early and 2000s anime got subbed

    I recently rewatched One Outs. It is a lot of fun.
    I have watched all the others except for maybe Zetsuen no Tempest
    I watched the live action movie of Black Butler.
    Also didnt watch Code Geass, didn't want to go with all the hype and not a fan of stories that glamorise suicide

    Also long time ago but it's likely that the MC faked his death, it's not clear and you shouldn't listen to whiners.

    Yeah with the new stories, it might be worth watching now almost a decade later.
    I just hate following the hype look at Black Clover
    even the fans of it who rode the hype are now hating it

    I know what you mean, I wanted to watch GoT but never remembered too, then I had one recommendation too many and it started pissing me off so I didn't watch it for years. Anime on the other hand has Full Metal Alchemist which is so overrated, I only watched it coz I was bored and before it got cool I guess, then it annoyed me how after that any anime fan I met was hyped about it.

    Lol, yeah Game of Thrones( I am guessing that is what you mean) ruined the supposed women power story by raping Dearnys, where I stopped.
    Only to discover from the wikia since it was too hard to avoid(lots of clips on youtube that I saw without knowing it was GoT lol) and I couldnt control my curiosity that every single female character was raped
    Even those who werent raped in the book got raped in the TV show ie Stansa lol
    I think 90% of the popularity is due to the nude scenes. I even enjoyed Hung, another HBO series more, while at least the first two seasons that had plot, last season had zero plot. The female police officer story was the best but wasnt developed
    I agree about Full Metal Alchemist, it is just like Ever Night, the Night Fall Live action adaptation.
    I hate the whole trope of villains who are not really villains but misunderstood like the boys; father
